I have 30% of the circumference of one tire's outside edge worn bald. All of the other three tires outside edges are worn evenly at 39K on the stock Contis. The tire with 1/3 circumference of the outside edge worn down is on the drivers side.
I have at lest 10-15k life left on the 3 evenly worn tires.
There is a slight positive camber accounting for the bit of outside wear on all the tires. They have been balanced and rotated very regularly every 5K after the first 10K.
I did have my driver's side strut leak and was replaced under warranty.
I don't think the compromised strut accounts for the strange bald portion of the one tire's outside edge. Nothing on the internet has yielded anything and the techs and managers where I get my car aligned were not helpful in diagnosing the problem.
Either it was a balancing issue, a hard skid brake that I have no recollection of, or a defective tire.
Any insights on this one tire's anomalous wear pattern would be appreciated.
